Faithful Soldier

Oh, when will I see Jesus
And reign with him above
And from the flowing fountain
Drink everlasting love
When shall I be delivered
From this vain world of sin
And with my blessed Jesus
Drink endless pleasures in

But now I am a soldier
My Captain's gone before
He's given me my orders
And bids me ne'er give o'er
His promises are faithful
Righteous crown he'll give
And all his valiant soldiers
Eternally shall live

Through grace I am determined
To conquer, though I die
And then away to Jesus
On wings of love I'll fly
Farewell to sin and sorrow
I bid them both adieu
And, oh, my friends be faithful
And on your way pursue

And when the last loud trumpet
Shall rend the vaulted skies
And bid the entombed millions
From their cold beds arise
Our ransomed dust revived
Bright beauties shall put on
And soar to the blest mansions
Where our Redeemer's gone
